Isa Mustafa: That's why Arba Abashi will win Pristina

The Democratic League of Kosovo is in a run-off for the largest, Pristina municipality. The LDK candidate will face Shpend Ahmeti, who in this election failed to achieve the votes he needed to remanate.

Former Kosovo Prime Minister Isa Mustafa, meanwhile LDK chairman, has been talking about Top Channel, about the outcome of Sunday's elections.

“I appreciate it was a pretty good process, fair and quite transparent. There have been some concessions on the ground, but they have been exceeded during the day. We have managed to show very good results, we have won four municipalities in this first round of elections”, Mustafa said.

We expect that the Podujevo municipality, where we have favourable results, can be won without a run-off, but that the number of votes from diaspora and conditional ones should be completed. In the run-off, we'll go for another 10 municipalities, and I appreciate we'll win all that we've run in this mandate that has just ended. We hope three more municipalities where we have shown very good results. In the general vote, we're very good at”.

Meanwhile, Mustafa also spoke about how the LDK will enter the run-off race in Pristina with Vetevendosje and which parties it will co-operate with.

“We will co-operate with all citizens, without any particular orientation to make coalition deals with any of the parties. We would prefer the coalition with citizens, because I appreciate that Arban has the support of citizens in Pristina and we will succeed in running the run-off Pristina to bring it back under our rule”.

“Arban has been quite accurate and concrete in presenting his government programme to the citizens of Pristina. He has received great support, even though in a very short period of time, so I appreciate that he will be the winner of these elections on November 19th, when he is voted for the” runoff, he said.
